Hi

Thank you for being a part of the Brand X community.

You have been randomly selected to participate in research commissioned by Brand X on the topic Artist Sentiment: 2019-2021, which is to be undertaken by Western Sydney University.

This brief survey should take you less than 5 minutes to complete and your responses will assist Brand X in its work with the City of Sydney, the Inner West Council, and North Sydney Council to improve conditions for artists.  But for us to best serve your work, we need your input.

Rest assured that all responses shall be both confidential, anonymous, and no personal data shall be collected.

To say “thank you” for your contribution, every person who fully completes a survey response will go into the draw to win two tickets to a performance at The Flying Nun, presented by Brand X at the East Sydney Community and Arts Centre, during season 5, which will run between January and June 2020. Should you wish to go into the draw to win two tickets to a show of your choice from Season 5 of The Flying Nun, brought to you by Brand X, please provide your email address at the end of the survey.

Thank you again

James from Brand X
